Became a dead city?
Qianyue frowned: "So, if you say so, this instance is unsolvable?"
Du Yue shook his head. "Fufeng will eventually become a dead city, mainly because of the chaos during the outbreak..."
While they were talking, the two had already arrived at the subway waiting area.
Du Yuanlang just heard that his second brother, who was always thinking about business, had brought back a female player for the first time and they had a pleasant conversation, so he couldn't help but come out to take a look.
Unexpectedly, he saw Qianyue at first sight, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Sister! I've had such a hard time looking for you!"
"..." The two people who were talking paused at the same time, and Du Yue looked at Qianyue in confusion.
The latter said expressionlessly, "Don't look at me. I don't know what's wrong with your brother."
She emphasized the words "your brother".
As they were talking, Du Yuanlang came up to them and said, "Sister, are you here to see me? Have you seen the posts I posted on the forum? Uh...?"
Qianyue simply put one hand on his face and pushed him away, with a look of disgust on her face.
"If you mean those 50-cent ones, I saw them."
But she regretted it the moment she saw it, and wanted to wash her eyes out with water. She didn't know what had happened to the Du family over the years, but they had raised their children like this, the true behavior of a second-generation rich kid.
Du Yue: "What do you mean by 50 cents a piece?"
Qianyue shrugged. "You should ask your brother. I'm going to rest now."
After saying that, she went straight into the carriage.
Du Yue turned to look at Du Yuanlang. The latter was like a quail being stared at by a cat, his previous excitement vanishing in an instant.
Meeting Du Yue's gaze, Du Yuanlang subconsciously shrank his neck: "Well... I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I'll go in first."
He wanted to run away after he said that.
Du Yue said coldly: "Stop."
Du Yuanlang froze, "...Is there anything else?"
Du Yue knew something was wrong as soon as he saw his reaction, and he felt a headache.
Du Yue had been taking the student with him these past few days, teaching him step by step. Although Du Yuanlang had improved considerably, his minor flaws remained. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred years to cultivate a person, and Du Yue had a profound understanding: straightening a crooked seedling was no easy task.
But compared to this, he has more important things to explain to Du Yuanlang right now.
The man walked towards the bench in the waiting room with his long legs: "Come here, I have something to ask you."
"...Oh." Du Yuanlang agreed weakly. He regretted now how impulsive he was when he first encouraged his second brother to play games with him.
However, no matter how reluctant he was, he finally followed with a drooping face. The words "life is meaningless" were written all over his body.
On the other side, Qianyue walked into the carriage.
The subway station is located underground and there is no sunlight. When they went down the stairs just now, they all used flashlights.
But at this time the lights were on in the carriage.
—— A "hardcore light" with a light tube on one side and a battery the size of a box directly connected to the other.
Qianyue took a closer look and found that they had removed the original light tubes in the subway station.
As for the battery...
"Are you new here today?" Seeing her staring at the light bulb was already commonplace in the base. Before Qianyue, almost every newcomer would stare at it with interest.
Xu Chuan noticed Qianyue when she was talking to the Du brothers, so he enthusiastically explained to her, "This is the battery that Brother Yue found with us at the subway station. We have a former electrician here at the base, and we made the lights ourselves. We also have a simple induction cooker so we can cook our own meals."
Hearing this, the other newcomers also looked over and finally found that the electrician was actually an Aboriginal.
Everyone: "Big brother is awesome."
The electrician waved his hand sheepishly. "It's just a simple, primitive way of making steel. It's just a makeshift way of making it."
Seeing that everyone was curious, he simply pointed at those things and explained the methods one by one.
Qianyue was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect it to be like this.
But she quickly figured out the intricacies of the situation: green rail transit is the new trend, and the subway, as a major energy consumer, has its own power supply system. However, just in case, independent batteries are stored in both trains and stations as backup power sources.
That type of battery is similar to the previous batteries, and they are all sealed in the same place.
In the words of a veteran player at the base: "The entire warehouse was filled with batteries. We were stunned when we broke in."
In Qianyue's opinion, if there is a chance to take refuge in a subway station after a disaster, most ordinary people would probably choose to do everything they can to restore the subway station or the train's system to create a good shelter for themselves - this was also her first reaction.
But in reality, the subway system is incredibly complex. Without specialized training, successfully operating a train is nearly impossible. In this situation, most people would likely simply give up and leave, never considering the possibility of disassembling and reassembling the power source themselves.
Qianyue couldn't help but sigh once again. It's true that everyone has their own strengths. For someone like her who has lived outdoors for years, nature-related survival methods are easy to master, but she's not so good at industrial-related things.
It’s not that she doesn’t know how to do it, it’s just that she is blinded by one thing and can’t think of it at all.
Qianyue sighed: "This method is really good."
But it's mine now too.
=w =
On the day Qianyue joined the base, it was raining and they couldn't go out. The patrol team was split up by Du Yue and divided into two groups. One group stayed at the iron gate where they had come from, while the other continued to explore along the subway tracks.
Qianyue had never seen what the subway tracks looked like, so she followed them to search with great interest.
Unfortunately, their group was heading in the wrong direction and encountered a track collapse, which interrupted their route and they returned empty-handed. However, the other group followed the track and found a new platform.
The subway station was mostly destroyed and inaccessible from the outside, so the group of people who sneaked in from the inside took advantage and stole a lot of spare batteries.
Du Yue breathed a sigh of relief. The base had been operating 24/7 for lighting, cooking, heating, and other tasks, and a lot of batteries had already been used up in the past few days. He had been worried about whether they had enough batteries, but now that they had new supplies, he felt relieved.
He thought to himself, "In this case, as long as nothing goes wrong, I should be able to make it to the end of the dungeon without any problems."
Qianyue ate and slept as usual, without any awareness of the danger of her situation.
On the second day after joining the base, which was also the seventh day of the game, some refugees approached them.
Qianyue was awakened by the sounds of fighting. Stepping out of the train, she saw a group of people rushing in armed with weapons. There were about six or seven of them, all indigenous people, armed with weapons like iron bars and machetes, clearly harboring ill intentions.
Du Yue was not there at this time, and the rest of the people spontaneously picked up their weapons and rushed forward.
Du Yuanlang rushed to the door of the carriage, holding a weapon in his hand and shouting: "Don't be afraid, sister, I'm here to protect you!"
Qianyue: "...Get out of the way, you're blocking my way."
Du Yuanlang: “…”
Qianyue pushed Du Yuanlang away without hesitation and snatched the weapon from his hand. The weapon had a strange shape, a long stick with a half-curved end. It looked a bit like the snake fork Qianyue used to use as a child.
But no matter what it is, as long as he has a stick, Qianyue can wield it with all her might!
"Get out of the way."
Suddenly a female voice was heard from behind him. Xu Chuan, who was still struggling with someone, subconsciously avoided it. Then the next second, a black shadow suddenly flew past him, and with a "clang", the person who was fighting with him fell directly to the ground!
"Search and then finish off the enemy."
Hearing the other party giving orders, Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized - was it the female player who came back with Brother Yue yesterday?
However, Qianyue was busy fighting and didn't even glance at him.
With her joining in, a few minutes later, the refugees all rolled on the ground. Following Qianyue's instructions, everyone searched the group of people and finally sent them a series of white lights.
The situation was special during the war. If they let the people go, it would probably not take long for these people to come back with another group to seize the base. So when they took action to silence them, no one hesitated.
Qianyue walked to the subway entrance and took a look. The rain outside was getting heavier, so dense that it was hard to see what was happening in the distance. Something on the pile of rubble began to slide down with the current, gathering on the ground and forming a flowing stream.
She glanced at the sky above her head and couldn't help frowning.
The time is probably about right.
Qianyue warned, "Be careful of floods and strengthen your precautions. I don't think things will be peaceful from now on."
Everyone responded subconsciously: "Yes!"
Qianyue hummed, turned around and walked back without changing her expression: "I'm going to rest for a while, call me if there is anything."
Everyone watched her leave, and only when Qianyue disappeared did they suddenly come to their senses.
Wait, why did they suddenly start following this woman's instructions?
However, the fact was just as Qianyue guessed. Not long after the refugees broke in, more people came one after another.
Aside from a tiny minority seeking refuge, the majority of those who came had ill intentions. Some were refugees looking for trouble, others were players who felt invincible after crafting a few hot-weapon weapons, and even some were well-equipped invader squads.
Except for the few people who surrendered sincerely, the rest were left behind by turning into white light.
At first, the people in the base thought that these guys just wanted to take shelter from the rain and accidentally broke in.
But after repeating it several times, everyone realized that something was wrong.
"It feels like it's happening more and more. Have we been discovered?"
"Could it be that someone has exposed us?"
As mentioned previously, during the early stages of the base's construction, some people stayed for a while before leaving for various reasons. The station they currently occupy is incredibly daunting. If these people become cornered outside, there's no guarantee someone will team up with other nefarious individuals to fight back.
But Qianyue doesn't think so.
She mused, "It's been raining for two days. If those people wanted to come, they would have come a long time ago."
Du Yue hadn't returned since he led his men out for an expedition that morning. There was originally another person in charge at the base, but he didn't seem adept at combat. Qian Yue, on the other hand, had been leading the entire day's battles, and everyone in the base gradually came to trust her.
Xu Chuan quickly asked: "What do you think?"
Qianyue glanced at him and said, "It's simple. The encirclement has shrunk."
"shrink?!"
Qianyue hummed.
These invaders arrived on the fifth day of the game, two days before the invasion. Although the system had never reported this, they knew from what they had seen and heard how powerful these invaders were.
However, there are still indigenous people here, so Qianyue can only explain the above analysis in a different way.
"Even after so many bombings, there are still people alive in the city. They must have long experienced the disadvantages of a dispersed, blanket-style war."
"It's raining heavily right now, so it's hard to go out. Most people will choose to hide in a corner. At this time, in order to complete the clearing mission, they will definitely try their best to drive everyone together as quickly as possible and then encircle and eliminate them all at once."
Someone suddenly realized, "I joined the base this morning. I was originally active in Xicheng District, but I don't know what happened, but I was suddenly targeted. Now that I think about it, it seems that I was really being chased and ran in this direction."
Another person also recalled, "If you put it that way, I feel the same way..."
"I saw everyone retreating to the north, and I thought there was something good up north."
“…”
Others: Isn't that good stuff? They have such a big base hidden here.
Someone's expression suddenly changed: "Come on, we're already exhausted today. Are there going to be even more people coming to our door in the next few days?"
Du Yuanlang suddenly asked, "Are we just going to passively wait for them to come to us?"
It was rare to hear Du Yuanlang calm down and say something after thinking it through. Qianyue couldn't help but turn her head to look at him.
Xu Chuan smiled bitterly: "Although we don't want to, but this is the fact."
Du Yuanlang frowned, trying to analyze the situation: "Is there no other way? We're going to fight anyway, so why don't we take the initiative?"
When he said this, the others were all stunned and seemed a little touched.
Yes, they will be beaten anyway, so why should they just wait here to be beaten instead of fighting back themselves?
Seeing that the others were lost in thought, Du Yuanlang gradually felt more confident.
"It's impossible for the rain to keep falling, otherwise we...ah, sister!" Du Yuanlang was about to say this when a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and pushed his whole face crooked with a "pop".
Du Yuanlang hesitated, "I'm just talking about business..."
Qianyue interrupted him directly: "I was thinking that your brother had been taking care of you for so long, and you had finally made some progress. But I didn't expect that you looked calmer on the surface, but in fact you are still the same as you were on the mountain, not changed at all."
"..." When Du Yuanlang heard her mention the word "on the mountain", the scene of being beaten up suddenly flashed through his mind, and his buttocks tightened subconsciously.
Du Yuanlang: I suspect that I have been implied, but I have no evidence.
Qianyue: "It's raining so hard outside, how are you going to go out?"
Someone answered: "Ah, we can wait until the rain stops..."
Qianyue asked, "After the rain stops, the ruins will ferment. Do you all have masks? Or are you sure you're immune to all poisons? Even if you have all of these, if those people open fire and the fermentation gas detonates, causing an instant explosion, who among you is sure you can escape?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Finally, one of the natives slowly raised his hand and said with a dry laugh, "...Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"
Just going out is such a big deal? Does that mean they won't be able to go out for the next few days?
Qianyue glanced at him and said calmly: "Not only can we not go out, we have to continue going underground."
"What??!"
Everyone immediately started talking at once.
"But the morning team hasn't returned yet."
"Going underground? What if it collapses?"
"thing……"
…
Qianyue's face gradually showed some impatience. She didn't like these kinds of group activities that required consensus, and now that there was a commotion, she was even more annoyed.
Everyone argued for two minutes, and finally Qianyue couldn't bear it anymore -
“So noisy.”
Obviously, she didn't yell or get angry, but just by saying this, the whole audience suddenly quieted down and turned to look at her.
Qianyue's expression eased slightly.
Glancing at the players in the crowd, she warned them with a double meaning, "Don't forget, our main task right now is survival."
In fact, when Du Yue introduced the prototype of this dungeon to her, Qianyue had already roughly grasped the key to clearing it. Later, Du Yue's actions of leading the group to stockpile supplies and open up new routes further confirmed her suspicions.
This war copy is different from those encountered in other games. The "main mission" does not require them to lead a war to save the city, but hopes that they will learn to think about how to survive as much as possible under the circumstances of that year, rather than repeating the mistakes of history.
After all, "Ten Day Plan" is a survival game.
Similarly, this is why this dungeon is called "Above the Wasteland" instead of "War".
However, there were too many indigenous people here, and Qianyue couldn't reveal the details about the battle prototype. So she simply ignored everyone's shock.
But then again, even if this was a monster dungeon, with Qianyue's lazy nature, she would probably choose to stay put. After all, this wasn't a real battlefield, so it wouldn't hurt to just play around. =
Qianyue glanced at the time and ordered, "Everyone, pack up and get ready to leave. It's already past three o'clock. Wait another twenty minutes. If the morning team hasn't returned, we'll go in the opposite direction they went."
Du Yuanlang was shocked: "In the opposite direction?! Wait, what do you mean, sister?"
Du Yue and his team had been on the move for several hours, which was unusual. Perhaps something had happened. If they hadn't been attacked during the day, they would have sent someone to look for them. But now Qianyue said that if they didn't see anyone after 20 minutes, they should just go in the opposite direction?
Doesn’t that mean just giving up on that group of people?
Xu Chuan frowned: "They haven't come back for so long, something must have happened. Should we go find them first?"
Qianyue stood up and left, leaving behind a casual "No need."
Du Yuanlang realized that something was wrong and quickly got up from the ground and chased after Qianyue, "Sister, don't scare me. Are you really going to ignore my brother and the others?"
He kept calling her "sister" and "my brother", which made Qianyue frown and feel indescribably awkward.
Qianyue said unhappily, "If you want to go find him, I won't stop you. Also, don't call me 'sister'. My brother doesn't look like you."
Du Yuanlang changed his words: "Master——"
Qianyue couldn't bear it any longer and pushed him on the forehead again, pushing him directly outside the door.
"roll."
These people don't think about it carefully. The three players in Du Yue's team are not fools. It is impossible for them to disappear for such a long time for no reason.
Throughout the day, Qianyue hadn't felt any tremors or shaking on the ground—this meant the team couldn't be trapped by a natural disaster like a landslide. With that ruled out, the only possibility left was an enemy attack.
How many people did the other side have to have to keep their entire group trapped and unable to return? Or was the situation even worse than she imagined: the members over there were already dying, and now they were just using their bodies to buy them time?
The people who stayed there had no way of knowing any of this.
But what is certain is that if something really happened, those people would definitely not want to see the people at the base risking their lives for them again.
Qianyue: "Repeat it one last time, and wait for the last eighteen minutes. If you want to save people, go and save them yourself, but if anything unexpected happens, don't blame me for not warning you."
After saying that, Qianyue turned and entered the carriage.
"Master..." Du Yuanlang wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xu Chuan. He turned around and saw that everyone was looking away, and he seemed to understand something.
Du Yuanlang asked, "Don't you all want to go?"
Xu Chuan coughed lightly. "It's not a question of willingness. The situation is unclear right now, so it's best not to act rashly."
Someone responded, "This matter is complicated after all, so let's just follow her instructions. I think what she says makes a lot of sense."
"I think so too."
“I didn’t feel that way before, but now I do.”
…
Looking at these familiar yet unfamiliar faces in front of him, Du Yuanlang curled the corners of his mouth, and his emotions were surprisingly calm.
According to his previous temper, he would have been making a fuss by now, but now he had a feeling that was "expected" - indeed, apart from the special relationship between him and his brother, the others were at most strangers who met by chance.
They were willing to wait for a while instead of evacuating immediately, which was already the most righteous thing they could do. At this time, there was really no need for them to sacrifice themselves for others.
Du Yuanlang turned around and jumped off the track. "You guys wait here. I'll go see my brother."
After saying that, he ran deep into the tunnel.
The group spent the next ten minutes or so in agony.
Seeing that the time was almost up, everyone was getting a little impatient.
"Should we wait a little longer..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qianyue walked out of the car on time. Looking at her appearance, it was obvious that she was ready to set off.
At this moment, a voice came from the tunnel.
"Wait! Wait for us!"
Du Yuanlang ran out of the tunnel panting, followed by another person.
“Caught up!”
Xu Chuan hurried over and asked, "What's going on? Why are there only two of you? Where are the others?"
Du Yuanlang gasped for breath. "In the back... the situation has changed. They are indeed in trouble."
...So what exactly is the trouble?
Seeing that he was still not getting to the point, the man who followed him quickly added: "We had found a new platform and were planning to search for supplies, but it turned out that the subway station was also connected, and a team came down from above to search, and we just happened to run into them."
At that time, their team consisted of only five people, while the enemy had almost twice as many people.
Du Yue immediately ordered his men to abandon the supplies and planned to quickly retreat and escape, but the other side had already discovered them and thought they were scared, so they quickly led their men to chase them and wanted to steal their supplies.
The rail lines are not as complicated as the roads on the ground, but they are also well-connected.
In order not to lure the person back, Du Yue and his team had to take another route midway. The chase took almost an hour.
By the time Du Yuanlang rushed over, the battle was already coming to an end.
"No wonder I couldn't wait for you to come back. By the way, quite a few of us came here today."
The man frowned: "Sure enough, it's the same as what Brother Yue guessed."
Xu Chuan jumped off the platform: "What should we do now? Send for reinforcements immediately?"
Du Yuanlang: "Ah, that's not necessary. The battle over there is already coming to an end. My brother asked us to come back and pass on the message, asking the people at the base to withdraw first..."
He suddenly tilted his head and shouted at the top of his voice: "Sister? Master? Can you hear me? You are amazing. You said exactly the same thing as my brother--"
Du Yuanlang shouted for a long time, but no one answered him.
Someone helped to take a look and found that Qianyue had disappeared at some point.
"Oh, it seems she's gone."
On the night of the seventh day of the game, everyone in the base moved into the subway tunnel with the supplies they had collected from the station.
The draft blew through the hallway, giving people goose bumps.
But fortunately, they didn't meet anyone else that night and had a peaceful rest.
On the eighth day of the game, the rain suddenly stopped and the sky cleared up.
Before everyone had time to rejoice at the appearance of the rainbow, they soon became acutely aware that the temperature seemed to be rising too quickly.
Less than an hour after daybreak, the surface temperature soared to over 30 degrees Celsius. At noon, the system issued a notification that the ground temperature had reached over 40 degrees Celsius and seemed to be trending higher.
Even though they were underground, they could still feel the pervasive heat in the air.
Just then, the system brought news of the withdrawal of troops.
"Due to the high temperature, the invaders have withdrawn."
"I repeat, due to the high temperature, the invaders have withdrawn."
…
Those who didn't know the inside story rushed out of the shelter excitedly, but after walking out they found that everything was not as simple as they imagined.
Without tall buildings to block the sunlight and without green shade to absorb the heat, the entire city is nakedly exposed to the sun, as if it were in a steamer.
The vast ruins turned into a huge garbage dump. In countless hidden corners, all kinds of garbage began to ferment, and the air was soon filled with unpleasant odors.
Mosquito eggs hatched from the sewage, which was as dense as a ditch. Flies took off from the cracks in the bricks and tiles, and more and more reptiles emerged from the soil. Rats also brazenly jumped onto the ruins and began their carnival...
The survivors on the ground gradually began to experience various adverse reactions, but at first, the natives didn't care.
"vomit."
"Hey, why are you vomiting again?"
The man didn't say anything, he just kept vomiting. However, they hadn't eaten anything in the past few days, so even if they vomited, it could only be dry vomiting, which made people terrified.
The companions next to him were also in trouble.
"Is your old stomach problem coming back? Damn it, where can I find stomach medicine for you..."
The man waved his hands and couldn't even say a word. The next second, he suddenly screamed "Wow" and spit out a large pool of blood!
On the ruins, three people walked side by side.
One of them suddenly lowered his head and sniffed, frowning and asking, "Do you smell a bad odor?"
"This place has become a garbage dump, how can it not stink?"
"No, I mean it seems to be on my body - I smell it, and it feels like it's on you."
The person being accused suddenly looked embarrassed, and pulled his own suit back from his hand, saying calmly, "Is it because you didn't shower? If I had known it was still raining yesterday, I would have gone out to take a shower."
The man frowned, still feeling something was wrong, "No, it doesn't smell like sweat..."
Before he could finish his words, another of his companions suddenly shouted, "Stop talking! The rats are coming out!"
The two men quickly gathered their minds and prepared to catch the mouse. In the past, they would have been too busy shouting and killing the mouse, but now, their eyes were shining, and they looked like they couldn't move their legs when they saw meat.
This is meat...
A certain player team.
"What's going on? I've already hidden underground, but why hasn't this dehydration gone away?"
"Dehydration isn't necessarily caused by high temperatures. Have you taken your medication?"
"I did get the shot, but I only have cold medicine."
"That's totally out of the question. At least we need some effective medicine like anti-inflammatory drugs."
"Forget it, I'll just hang on like this—wait, why did another plague suddenly appear?"
When they heard the word "plague", the few people who had been gathering with him quickly took several steps back.
The player was stunned. "What are you doing? Why are you standing so far away?"
Others: “Don’t come over here!”
"Are you sick? It's just an illness. I can just give you some medicine to keep you going..." Before he could finish his words, his whole body suddenly stiffened.
Then blisters* suddenly burst out on the exposed skin.
His companions were confused by the situation: "What's going on? What happened to him? Why did he suddenly become like this?"
The other person was also stunned.
But in the next second, the originally stiff person suddenly moved strangely!
"I remember now! This guy's mental suppressant has worn off a long time ago! He's gone crazy!"
The moment the words fell, all the blisters on the man's body suddenly exploded, and pus and blood splattered everywhere!
"roar--"
The frantic player roared and rushed towards the remaining two people!
On the ninth day of the game, a large-scale epidemic broke out, pushing the progress of the entire dungeon to a critical point.
In addition to the plague, there are also malaria, dengue fever, Minamata disease... and so on.
Players can still rely on special medicines to relieve the pain. If all else fails, they can use basic medicines such as Isatis root bandages to keep the dungeon alive, waiting for the time to come and the dungeon to end.
But for the indigenous people, these pains are real.
Players' medicines can help them relieve some pain, but they are completely unable to cure the disease.
At the last moment of life, humanity faces a huge test.
Some people choose to die peacefully, while others angrily denounce the injustice of fate and deliberately rush into the crowd to "poison" others, hoping to pass their pain on to more people...
Underground tunnel.
Qianyue leaned against the wall with her eyes closed, while Du Yue was using medical supplies on her.
The moment the bandage was applied to the arm, a soft light flashed from the medicine, and the wound on Qianyue's body healed visibly.
Soon, the health value was pulled back to the green zone. Qianyue raised her hand to interrupt Du Yue and took out the props from her bag and returned them to him.
Because Du Yue is a doctor and has a professional bonus, Qianyue clearly felt that the consumption of medicines had decreased a lot when she returned the medicine, and she couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Thank you."
"No need." Du Yue accepted it without hesitation and used it on himself.
The two of them sat next to each other, with no one else around.
Not long ago, a player in the team suddenly went crazy and caught them off guard.
After being scratched, another player also quickly went crazy. Everyone fled in all directions and finally got separated.
Qianyue originally wanted to leave alone, but after walking around a few times, she ran into Du Yue who was also alone.
The two observed for a while, and when they saw that there was no danger, they simply sat down where they were and waited quietly for the copy to end.
At this time, there were only about ten minutes left until the end of the copy, so they were not in a hurry at all if they got separated from others.
But just sitting there seems a bit boring.
In the darkness, the two did not carry any lighting tools and could only see the outline roughly because Du Yue did not notice that Qianyue was closing her eyes to rest.
His gaze paused for a moment on the other person's outline, and Du Yue suddenly remembered something.
He asked, "I don't think I know your name yet."
Qianyue: “…”
The person who was about to fall asleep was awakened by this sentence.
She thought to herself: The copy is almost over, why bring this up again!
The surname "Qian" wasn't a common name, and coincidences of having the same name were even rarer. Du Yue had been stood up once, so it was impossible for him not to remember the first two characters of her name.
Therefore, Qianyue was very sure that as long as she said her name, the other party would definitely be able to see through her identity_(:з」∠)_
In fact, if it was just a name, it wouldn't be a big deal for him to know it, but the key point was that Qianyue had been staying with the two brothers these days and had not taken the initiative to reveal her identity.
It was like someone had played a trick on him. Anyone would probably be angry in this situation.
The most important thing is that she had finally gotten over the incident of standing up a blind date. Qianyue didn't want to have anything to do with the Du family anymore.
so……
Say it? Or not?
Qianyue simply continued to close her eyes and pretended that she didn't hear anything.
“…”
Du Yue listened to her breathing and knew she was awake, but since she didn't want to reveal her name, he didn't know what to say.
The man bent his long legs and leaned back against the wall. He frowned and muttered to himself, "I don't know why, but I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."
If someone else said this, they would probably be beaten up as a hit-up artist.
But Du Yue had been a soldier, and his tone was so meticulous, as if he was discussing some tactical issues, that people didn't feel any offense at all.
Similarly, because he had served in the military, he had full faith in his intuition.
His intuition told him that he had seen it before, so he must have really seen it, but he just couldn't remember it for the time being.
Du Yue: "I heard that you were the one in charge when I was away. You are very capable."
Qianyue pretending to be asleep: "..."
What's wrong with this guy today? Did he take the wrong medicine? Isn't he supposed to be a cool and mature person?
However, as if he had heard Qianyue's inner thoughts, Du Yue's personality collapsed more and more completely.
He even chuckled for the first time and said, "Thank you for helping me teach Yuan Lang a lesson. This child was too spoiled before. He needs to suffer more before he can grow up."
He paused, the copy had entered the countdown.
Du Yue turned his head and looked at Qianyue, his tone serious: "Although I still don't know your name in the end, I still hope to have the opportunity to see you again next time. It's a pleasant cooperation."
